*IsSentenceCard

Notes:

• When the *IsSentenceCard field is filled with any character, card is turned into a sentence card. When empty, it is turned into a vocab card.
• The MainDefinition field is for the displayed definition on the card. When empty, the template displays a definition from the FullDefinition field. The preferred dictionaries for the default definition can be changed in the back template.
• The PitchPosition field takes in {pitch-accent-positions}. {pitch-accents} and {pitch-accent-graphs} will not work.
• The FreqSort field is for frequency sorting. (See freq)
• The Hint field is for a hint on the front of the card (See Animecards).
• The furigana fields only take in plain furigana. (e.g. 漢字[かんじ] not 漢字かんじ).
• The color scheme can be inherited from system by removing this rule from the styling template.

Basic Note Template

These days I prefer to keep my cards simple and just use the basic front/back template with minor changes to its styling.

Just copy this into the Basic note type's Styling tab:

.card {
  font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Arimo, Inter, Roboto,
    'Segoe UI', Arial, 'Noto Sans JP', 'Noto Sans SC', sans-serif;

  margin: 0 auto;
  padding: 80px 20px;
  max-width: 650px;
  text-align: left;
  font-size: 20px;
  line-height: 1.6;
  background-color: white;

  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
  -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
}

Kanken Deck Template

Anki card template for the Kanken Deck.

Just copy and paste the following templates into Anki.

  <div class="meta">Kanken Level: {{KankenLevel}}</div>
  
  <div class="sentence">{{SentenceFront}}</div>
  
  <div class="main-image">{{Picture}}</div>
